A typical day at the clubhouse! Looking around you see various games being played like the popular blind-man's bluff,
the intellectual, intense, chess game; naps being taken, pictures being drawn, and the like. Today, everyone is here,
everyone is healthy, and everyone is happy! Well, almost everyone...
"ARE YOU TRYING TO CHEAT MEEE!??!!", screamed Arua as she threw the chess board in the air. "I don't get
any of this!! Stop pulling rules out your butt in the middle of the game!! I'm a beginner, where's the dignity in pulling the
wool over my eyes?! You ought to be ashamed!! I'm hurt! I thought we were friends! ...C'mon, now, help me pick up this mess..."
Maxwell looked up, figuring she was done ranting. "I didn't pull any rules out my butt, I completely explained castling
before we even started playing! Have you even been paying attention to me?!", he demanded, stooping down to pick up
a bishop and look her in the eyes. "No," Arua pouted, "it's just so BORING to listen to all the rules! Why can't we just play,
and you can walk me through it and tell me what not to do and what to do and-" "No no NO, if we do it like that you won't
learn anything! Like walking someone through a Zelda game, showing them what to do, they'll never learn if you tell them
everything before they try! Besides, why'd you even ask me to show you how to play chess if you think it's boring?"
"...No reason," Arua mumbled, and she really DID have no reason.
"Maybe you just want to spend time with him without being conspicuous.....zuu zu..." Coughed Snoozer, forgetting he was supposed to be 'sleep-talking', from across the room.
"Hey, Penelope, what do you think of my picture?" Asked Pashmina as she held her paper up for inspection. Penelope stared for a
second before busting out laughing and saying 'ookyoo okyoo' over and over, to which Pashmina replied "Oh come off it,
I've drawn TONS of others, some of Howdy or Dexter, some of you, some of fruits, some of seeds, some of my scarf, what does
ONE picture of Stan hurt? No! NO! Stop it!!!!!" Pashmina blushed as Penelope jumped around the room, yelling in her own
weird language that 'Pashmina loves Staa-aaan!!!' She was only doing it because she knew no one could understand her,
and it wouldn't REALLY hurt Pashmina or make her REALLY angry. Meanwhile Stan was across the room watching Bijou, waiting for a chance to flirt,
totally oblivious to the commotion.
"Crushes are a normal, healthy part of life that can't, and shouldn't be avoided............um, zuuuuuuu zu zu zu zu."
Snoozer said, again forgetting the premise of his character.
"Zey are being all too noisy over there, are zey not, Hamtaro?" Asked Bijou as the final round of blind-man's bluff was
finished, plopping down on the sofa beside Hamtaro and looking at him earnestly. "I can barely ear myzelf zink!!"
"Oh?" Hamtaro turned to her. "Sorry, Bijou, I didn't notice you were there. Did you say something? Penelope is being kind
of distracting, and Arua was just throwing some kind of sore-loser fit. Gosh, it's just too loud in here! I can't even hear myself
think, ya know?" "......Um, you took zee words right out of my mouth, Hamtaro! I was zinking zee same zing." "What?" "I
said 'I was zinking zee same zing!'" "Huh?! Hey, I can't hear you?" "OOKYOO OOOKYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSUKBGRDIJKBSDJKGMNFV!!!!"
"I ZAID I WAS ZINGING ZEE ZAME ZING!! ZCREAAAAAM!!!!" "HUH?? ZINKA ZEE SCREAMA ZCREE?! Bijou, ARE YOU OK?!"
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" "HEY GUYS I THINK BIJOU'S HAVING A FIT!" "GET BACK HERE PENELOPE, WE'RE GOING HOME
AND I'M GONNA SEE THAT YOU GET A GOOD, SOUND, SPANKING FROM YOUR MOMMA BECAUSE YOU'RE BEING MEAN TO ME
AND I DO NOT NOT not LOVE STAN!!" "IZAIDIWASZINKINGZEZAMEZIIIIIIIIIIIING!!"
Total silence, except for Snoozer's, "I THINK WE SHOULD- zu zu zuuuu..." Pashmina stormed out, dragging Penelope, saying she would be back in a few minutes.
Stan jumped down from the balcony saying, "She doesn't love me, eh?", with a look in his eye that said 'Bijou? Who's Bijou?'
"RIGHT! She DOESN'T love you!", screamed Howdy, while Dexter yelled, "You got that one right, that's for sure!"
"Well why don't we let her cool off, wait for her to come back, and then ask her about who she loves? ..I'll bet you a walnut it's none of those bozos."
Said Arua, turning to Bijou, who tried not to giggle (because that wasn't exactly nice :o.)
Suddenly the door swung open. Stan, Dexter, and Howdy turned to the door expectantly, while everyone else turned to look casually. Except Snoozer who didn't look at all (he was asleep.)
Bijou's white face instantly paled .
"It's you...oh, no, not you......"
END CHAPTER 1
If you like it you should say so or else I probably won't continue this. :O
